The countdown has begun. Only a mere 27 days until the Pittsburgh Steelers begin training camp. St. Vincent College is an excellent place to run a training camp. The field space is terrific and the fields are manicured well. It has an amphitheater type setting where the Steeler Nation can bring their blankets, their picnic baskets, and their entire families to sit on the hillside and watch the Steelers practice. It is amazing how people from across the entire country will show up at training camp. Why do the people in this region and across the nation and even worldwide have such a love affair with the Pittsburgh Steelers? It is real simple: the Steelers win! The Steelers have played in 7 Super Bowls with the first victory coming on January 12, 1975 and have an outstanding Super Bowl record of 6 wins and 1 loss. In the last 35 football seasons, the Steelers have participated in 7 Super Bowl. In the last 35 years, they are on a 20%Super Bowl participation rate which is incredible considering there are 32 teams in the NFL and some of these franchises have never participated in the Super Bowl. The Steelers administrative personnel have been top notch, the coaching has been superb, and the scouting department is doing a very thorough job. The scouting department is really grinding it out finding some way down"Under the Radar" undrafted free agent players that have developed into integral components of the team. It is real simple, this organization knows how to win.
